[Verse]
C       Am             F
Oceans apart day after day
        G       C
And I slowly go insane
C       Am             F
I hear your voice on the line
        G            Am
But it doesn't stop the pain
 
[Pre-Chorus]
Am             F
If I see you next to never
Am               F             C
How can we say forever
 
[Chorus]
C               G
Wherever you go
G              Am
Whatever you do
Am         F                C
I will be right here waiting for you
C               G
Whatever it takes
G               Am
Or how my heart breaks
Am         F                C
I will be right here waiting for you
 
[Verse]
C       Am             F
I took for granted, all the times
        G                C
That I thought would last somehow
C        Am               F
I hear the laughter, I taste the tears
G                       Am
But I can't get near you now
 
[Pre-Chorus]
Am              F
Oh, can't you see it baby
Am              F      C
You've got me goin' crazy
 
[Chorus]
C               G
Wherever you go
G              Am
Whatever you do
Am         F                C
I will be right here waiting for you
C               G
Whatever it takes
G               Am
Or how my heart breaks
Am         F                C
I will be right here waiting for you
 
[Bridge]
Dm7     C         F
I wonder how we can survive
F
This romance
Dm7     C             F
But in the end if I'm with you
F           G
I'll take the chance

I will be right here waiting for you

I also like this version better, there is another version of this song on this site that doesn't make sense at all, but this one, albiet basic, sounds accurate enough to my novice ears.
